Hello All,

The 20th Vintage Gunners Cup at Hopkins Game Farm in Kennedyville, MD, is approaching fast now. Three days of double gun and rifle fun are set for September 22 - 24. Besides the veritable plethora of shooting events, this year's VGC will host the annual Fox-Parker Challenge.

We expect to have at least as many outstanding vendors as last year. I'll post an updated list shortly, but among those already confirmed to be there are:

James Purdey and Sons -- Including seminars on best gun manufacture

Steve Barnett Fine Guns

James D. Julia Auctions - represented by Josh Loewensteiner

Heritage Guns

Dubarry of Ireland

Geoffroy Gournet, Master Engraver

Robin Hollow Outfitters

MacNab Fine Firearms

RST - Classic Shotshell Co., Inc.

Russell Moccasin Co.

Vintage Doubles (Kirby Hoyt)

BraeVal

Allgood Associated Sport Suppliers

Great. Looking forward to a great weekend.

Just a suggestion: Is there any chance the vendor tents could be set up in the grass instead of the very course gravel lot? It would be much cooler and less dust too.

Rumor has it that anyone displaying or selling guns in the tents needs to show proof of insurance... Is this true? If not, what is the policy of the Vintage Gunners and Hopkins Game Farm regarding the presence of guns on display or for sale in the tents?

The Sunday before, 9/17, is the Orvis Cup at Sandanona in Millwood, NY. Last year many of the same vendors were there as were at the Vintage Cup.

In the past it has been Saturday and Sunday, this year it's listed as just Sunday.


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

The Orvis Game Fair this year is both 9/16 and 9/17. The olives Cup is on the 2nd day. Fun event.

This is what I was told. The Lefever Arms Collectors Association doesn't have any insurance because we cannot figure out why on earth we would need it. Therefore we are not coming.

Matt, is there a schedule of events posted? If not, do you know which day the Purdey Fine Gunmaking seminar will be presented? Thank you.
